[QUOTE="SidecarFlip, post: 691696, member: 39764"] Your Missus uses some strong detergent........:) The tube and parts are anodized which basically is controlled rusting (oxidation of a non-ferrous surface)through electrolysis with the addition on a colorant to give the desired color, in a nutshell. BTW Parkerizing is basically the same on a ferrous surface through the use of mineral salts and elevated temperature, no electrolysis. Had to be something in the green Tee shirt or in the closet that removed the color. [/QUOTE]
